 <title>Installation of the kernel headers</title>
 
-<para>We won't be compiling a new kernel yet -- we'll do that when we have

-<para>It is important to note that the files in the kernel source directory
-are not owned by <emphasis>root</emphasis>. Whenever you unpack a package as
-user <emphasis>root</emphasis> (like we do here inside chroot), the files end
-up having the user and group IDs of whatever they were on the packager's
-computer. This is usually not a
-problem for any other package you install because you remove the source
-tree after the installation. But the Linux kernel source tree is often kept
-around for a long time, so there's a chance that whatever user ID the packager
-used will be assigned to somebody on your machine and then that person would
-have write access to the kernel source.</para>
